“I just used my last drop of BBQ sauce – we are in mourning…..when is mango season?” – Marlen, Miami via Twitter

“Hands down! [Renée] – she is the best jam maker in Florida. Well now I found out she makes bread – just to die for!! I have to go back next Saturday to the little SW Community Farmers’ Market at Tropical Park!” – Customer, Miami

“This [Mango Chipotle] bbq sauce has become my latest obsession. And no, I’m not getting paid to say that. It’s just the truth. I’ve used this sweet and spicy concoction in this simple shrimp recipe, added it to white beans and ground turkey chili, and mixed it with mayonnaise to spread on boiled corn before sprinkling it with shredded parmesan cheese. All were awesome!” – Olga of Mango & Tomato

“… I purchased some of the jams – a sampler with Blueberry Mojito, Pina Colada Jam, Strawberry Daquiri Jam, and half-pints of Blueberry Mojito and Blueberry Marmalade.  All are simply out of this world!  And no, no one paid me to say that.  It’s just a fact.  Oh, and many of the blueberries in the latter are whole!” – Suzanne Collier of Thru The Bugs On My Windshield

“… [I spooned] some [Piña Colada] jam over the pork, and let me tell you, that was one of the best pork loins I had ever had. It was tender, and so flavorful. The pepper in the seasoning spice complemented the sweetness of the jam, and married into one delicious pork dinner.” – Megan Pires of Megan’s Cookin’

“I recently bought some wonderful marmalades from Renee of www.freakinflamingo.com with the intent of adding them to some great pork and chicken recipes.

“…Verdict: Fantastic. I love it!” [Strawberry Daiquiri Jam] – MJ Markham of the merry gourmet

“… I think your products are delicious. My mom is a big blueberry fan and we both remarked that your blueberry marmalade really hits all the right notes for someone looking for a great blueberry experience. That is to say, it wasn’t just blueberry “flavored,” it was pure blueberry essence in a jar.” – Casey Benedict of TasteStopping and Kitchen Play

“… My family is partial to the blueberr[y mojito jam] I have to say. I love them both. I like tartness of the cranberries [Caribbean Cranberry] to balance the sweetness. I’m going to use them for some cookies. :-)” – Joy José of Gourmeted
